party on!

i asked mallory what she wanted to eat for her party,

of course she said pizza!

when planning this party, i realized mallory has all older friends.

only one other child was 3 the rest are older. 

i thought it was kind of funny.

aren't they all so cute. 

they were very good and played and played and had tons of fun.

here is the cake.

the party was all about bugs, since mallory loves bugs.

i kept on "bugging" the kids that the "dirt" was real dirt.

it was pretty entertaining.

the birthday girl with grapes in her cheeks.

it was much cuter in person.

the bubba's.  he napped for most of it, but got to come outside and play.

this is dr. madsen.  the horses were sick and he was looking after them.

this is josh. 

he is in olivia's preschool class and he loves her.

he has already asked brett if he can marry olivia!!  how cute is that!

BUT, mallory seems to love him.  adorable to watch them.

a little love line? (not the show).

princess outfits everywhere!

mallory got some really cool gifts.  she was very excited.

the whole crew.

aren't they so cute.  they were all very well-behaved and we all had a great time.

funny faces.

i forgot to take a picture of the best part of the party.  the treat bag.  i found a bug catcher at the dollar store and got one for each of the kids and packed it full of bug stuff.  they LOVED it.

the best part about having this party happened a couple days after when someone asked mallory how her birthday was.  she responded "all my friends got to come over". 

that made the 4 hours of crazy fun worth it!
